No mention at class but when he was born the midwives came and did the first few nappies (they even managed to get the paed to do the first meconium poo as they figured he found it he should change it lol) and showed us a couple of different ways of folding old school flat nappies.

They had just started using disposables at the San the year before I had DD1 there (2007). They used to use the old style flats, MCN were not mentioned. I can't remember if we changed a nappy on a doll or not, don't think so. And they didn't really discuss how often to change either, so I was going on my mum's advice and changing every time I found a wee, to avoid nappy rash. Went through my free packet of sposies stupidly fast thanks to that.

We just went through antenatal classes at Norwest (NW Sydney). Practised with disposables on the doll - no mention of terry flats at all. A PeaPods MCN was passed around, seemed like a bit of an after thought when we mentioned we were going to use MCNs There was a bit of general discussion of the environmental pros / cons of both - the conclusion seemed to be that we should be concerned about the environment, but there weren't any specific recommendations.
